This comprehensive volume delves into a detailed examination of the provincial silver coinage of Judah during the late Persian, Macedonian, and early Hellenistic periods. It provides accurate descriptions of the coins, their designs, and their inscriptions, while also enumerating the obverse and reverse dies identified for each of the 44 recorded types. Furthermore, the book elucidates the probable sequence of the issues based on iconographic associations and die links, shedding light on the chronological development of the coinage.

In-depth analysis of the coin types' iconography is conducted, comparing them to motifs found in Greek, Persian, and ancient Near Eastern art, including other local coinages and sources in Judahite material culture. The monograph also delves into the realm of metrology, examining the measurements and metal content of the coins, as well as exploring their circulation patterns within the ancient province of Judah.

The overarching goal of the study is to contextualize the Yehud coinage within its historical framework and establish its significance in the economic landscape of the ancient province of Judah. By examining these various aspects, the book offers valuable insights into the cultural, political, and economic developments of the region during this period.

This comprehensive volume provides a wealth of information and analysis, making it an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts interested in ancient coinage, history, and the study of the ancient Near East.
